[He takes the gun back and her hand goes straight for her coat pocket. Map time.]
Augie, you don’t have to carry me around. [Grumble grumble. Even though she knows it’s the better option as far as her ankle’s concerned. She still doesn’t want to be a bother. Stubborn stubborn.]
We can stay here a minute. It’s either that or check out the unknown upstairs. [Unfolding the map, Wendy limps back towards the box she was using for a seat before. She looks at the front of the map, then turns it over - in case she missed something before. Sigh. Nothing useful. No upstairs noted on here. It is a mystery.]
How long do you think we have here before we need to move?
[There’s probably so much damage along the way out there - barricading anything would be a challenge. So it’s only a matter of time before more beasties come wandering.
She doesn’t have a pen on her to make any marks - she checked before - so she smoothes the map out on her lap and starts making Xs over rooms and halls with her pointer finger. Ensuring everything is committed to memory.]
All these are no good. [Hand curled into a loose fist, she lifts it to her mouth and starts chewing on her thumb cuticle as she racks her brain.] Hm. Looks like this could possibly lead to another building? [She points near where they currently are on the map. Near the top. There’s a… curved passageway? Path in general? Leading to another square.] Outside’s kinda risky but what else do we have?
[Besides staying put. Venturing upstairs. Dying. You know.]
